    We started on our Christmas treats yesterday too! DD said, surely this whole cupboard of food isn't juuuuuust for Christmas day mum??? And I thought, hmm, she's right so we started yesterday seeing as though we're off work/ school now, the holidays have officially begun here (well apart from for DP he forgot to book any time off! But most others have booked off so he's looking forward to a quiet couple of days to catch up on last bits before handing it over to his successor in Jan!)
